China is one of the earliest cradles of civilization and the visit to this ancient nation has long been my dream. This visit will give me an excellent opportunity to meet old friends and establish new contacts. I wish to say again that I am so delighted and privileged to visit your great country and this lovely town. I am deeply grateful for everything you have done for me since my arrival in China. As an American manager of a Sino-American joint venture for two years, I have to say that there are differences in business management practice between Chinese and Americans. We are more direct and straightforward than most Chinese colleagues due to our different cultural traditions. I can't say our way of doing business is absolutely superior. After all, there are strong points and weak points in both types of management. In recent years, more and more American business executives have recognized the strong points of the more humane way of Chinese management. It is a great pleasure that I can exchange views and information with you, and reach common ground here. And I wish to share with you my thoughts on this topic in the days to come. Thank you!尊敬的各位来宾，女士们，先生们： 非常感谢你们热情友好的欢迎词。中国是最古老的文明发源地之一，访问这个文明古 国是我多年梦寐以求的愿望。这次访问使我有机会重见老朋友，结交新朋友。我为自己能 访问贵国和这座美丽的城市，再次表达我的愉快之情和荣幸之感。我对你们为我到达贵国 后所做的安排深表谢意。 作为在一家中美合资企业工作了两年的美国经理，我认为中国人和美国人在经营管理 中存在着差异。基于不同的文化传统，我们的美国同事比大部分中国同行来得直率。我无 法断言我们美国的经营方式一定在中国之上。毕竟各有各的优点和弊病。近年来，越来越 多的美国管理人员已经认识到中国人那种更具人情味的管理方式的长处。 很高兴我们能交换意见和信息，并达成共识。我希望在今后的日子里，我能有机会就 此话题与各位交换自己的看法。谢谢!Coordinating-Field InterpretingDavid: Hi!

China's long history and vast territory have given birth to the distinctive Chinese culinary art. B. Text Interpreting Text D Many changes are taking place in American food styles. The United States is traditionally famous for its very solid and unchanging diet of meat and potatoes, Now, in addition to the traditional home-cooked meal, we have many different alternatives to choose from: such as nutrition-balanced health food, convenient and delicious fast food and so on. Health food gained popularity when people began to think more seriously about their physical health. Health food includes natural food with minimal processing. Most health food enthusiasts are vegetarians. They eat no meat and prefer to get their essential proteins from other sources, such as beans, cheese, and eggs. Fast food can be seen all over the country. Speed is a very important factor in the life of an American. People usually have a short lunch break or they just do not want to waste their time eating. Because fast-food restaurants are places which take care of hundreds of people in a short time, there is usually very little waiting. And the food is always cheap. 美国人的饮食习惯正在发生变化。 美国人多年来那种丰盛的、 一成不变的肉制品加土豆 的传统餐，早已为世人所熟知。而今，我们美国人可以有多种不同的选择，除了传统的家常 菜外，我们可以享受到各种各样的营养均衡的保健餐，方便可口的快餐等等。 保健食品因人们开始重视自身健康而倍受青睐。 保健食品包括那些尽可能不加工的天然 食品。大多数热衷于保健食品的人士属素食主义者。他们不吃肉类食物，更愿意从豆类、奶 酪和鸡蛋等食物中获取人体所需要的蛋白质。 全国各地到处可见快餐店。 速度是美国人生活中一个非常重要的因素。 通常人们的午餐 休息时间很短， 或者人们不愿意在用餐上花费过多的时间。 由于快餐店可以在很短的时间里 向数以百计的客人供餐，人们通常不用等太久。而且，快餐还很便宜。 Unit 4 Phrase-Interpreting A 1. to have a population of... 2. to cover an area of... 3. to date back to... 4. to have a history of... 5. to be situated in... 6. the gross domestic product 7. drive-in restaurant 8. quarantine certificate 9. duration of stay 10. residence permit 1．有……人口 2．有……面积 3．追溯到…… 4．有……年的历史 5．位于…… 6．国内生产总值 7．“免下车”餐厅 8．检疫证书 9．居留期限 10．居住证 B． 1．日程安排 2．旅行路线 3．起飞时间 4．机场大楼 5．候机室 6．贵宾室 7．问讯处 8．安全检查 9．免税店 10．个人物品 1. schedule 2. itinerary 3. departure time 4. terminal building 5. departure lounge 6.

The boss is sending me to the west coast for a marketingseminar next month. Interpreter：嗨，Kyle，你猜怎么着!老板下月要我去西岸参加一个市场营销研讨会。 Kyle：啊哈，你肯定很高兴。你想出差都想好几个月了。 Interpreter: Ah ha.h, you must be happy. You've been itching to go on a business trip for months. Jean: Yeah, and he said there'll be more coming up, so I should get a corporate card. Problem is, I don't know how to proceed, and I didn't want the boss to know that. Can you fill me in? Interpreter：是的，他说以后还有更多。所以我应该有一张公司信用卡。但问题是我 不知道如何申请，而且不想让老板知道。你能帮我吗? Kyle：当然了，没问题。首先去找秘书，告诉她你要去哪儿?什么时候去?她 会通过我们的旅行代理，为你安排交通和酒店，并在几天内给你旅程表。 同时问她要一张信用卡申请表。 Interpreter: Sure, no problem. First, go and see the secretary and tell her where you're going and when. She'll arrange for transportation and hotel through our travel agent, and give you the itinerary in a few days. At the same time, ask her for an application form for the card. Jean: Will I use the card for everything? Interpreter：一切费用都要用那张卡吗? Kyle：不，我们和一些主要的航空公司和酒店都有公司信用协议。这次旅行你 也许只会用它来吃饭。但并不是所有的饭店都接受这一信用卡。你也许 得付现金。 Interpreter: No, we have company credit arrangements with some major airlines and hotels. For this trip, you'll probably only use it for food. Not all restaurants accept the card, so you may have to pay cash. Jean: Do I pay out of my own pocket? Interpreter：我要花自己的钱吗? Kyle：恐怕是。我们以前是预支差旅费，但自从公司使用信用卡后，就停止了。 Interpreter: I'm afraid so. We used to have cash advances, but the company stopped that when they started issuing cards. Jean: Will the company reimburse everything? Interpreter：公司会报销所有费用吗? Kyle：不，有每日最高限额。我会给你一个表。当然私人用品不算在内。而且 必须保留所有收据。回来后，你必须把它们贴在报销单上。 Interpreter: No, there are maximum per day rates. I'll give you a list. Of course, personal items aren't covered. And make sure you keep all your receipts. You'll have to attach them to your expense account when you get back. Jean: Anything else? Interpreter：还有其他的吗? K|yle：既然你要经常飞行，去申请一张飞行积分卡。积累飞行里程是商务旅行 的额外补贴之一。到时候告诉我你是怎么带着旅行包生活的。 Interpreter: Since you'll be traveling often, apply for a frequent flyer card. Gathering frequent flyer miles is one of the perks of business travel. And let me know how you like living out of a suitcase.Packaging 下午好，以下是我们这次商务旅行日程的简单安排： Good afternoon, I would like to take this opportunity to talk briefly about your schedule i in the coming days. 第一天：上午我们参观深圳市经济技术开发区、座谈，下午参观中国硅谷――深圳科技园， 商务洽谈。第二天：请深圳市有关领导介绍深圳市招商引资和投资环境等情况及专业考察， 下午参观深圳知名企业华为集团和康佳集团。第三天：全部是游览活动――“世界之窗”和 “锦绣中华” 。第四天：与当地企业家进行专业座谈，然后是粤菜风味的晚宴会。 On the fast day, you will visit Shenzhen Economic & Technical Development Zone and a free discussion will be held after the visit.

You will find this two-week trip one of your most memorable experiences in your life. The Silk Road dates back to the 2nd century B.C., when a Chinese official and envoy of the royal court Zhang Qian embarked on his business trip to Western Region (a Han Dynasty term for the area west of Yumenguan Pass, including what is now Xinjiang and parts of Central Asia) following the trade road linking Asia and Europe. Originating from Chang'an (present-day Xi'an), the route traversed Shaanxi Province, the Hexi Corridor in Gansu Province, the Tarim Basin in Xinjiang, the Pamir mountain region, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Syria, ending at the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. More than 4,000 of its 7,000 kilometers were in China. For over a thousand years up till the 15th century, China brought its silk cloth and goods, gunpowder, and paper making and printing techniques to the countries in Western Region via this road. This road, in return, introduced into China Buddhism and Islam as well as grapes, walnuts, pomegranates, cucumbers, glass, perfume and other products from the outside world. Because China's silk reached the countries in Western Region along this road, European scholars came to call it &the Silk Road&. A wealth of historical relics, fascinating scenery and interesting local cultures along the Silk Road makes this long trip one of the world's most exciting tourist attractions. Many Chinese ethnic minorities scatter along the Chinese portion of the road, all courteous and hospital to visitors from the rest of the world. The food and crafts in the region are different from those in central China. And the folklore is simply exotic and colorful, just like those fantastic tales in The Arabian Nights. The Silk Road Tour our travel agency offers will start from the ancient city of Xi'an and end at Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang. The tour will also cover Lanzhou, Dunhuang and Turpan. All along the route, you will take pleasure in the charms of the natural landscape, appreciate the superb workmanship of ancient artists, enjoy local delicacies and meet local people. This trip will certainly give you sweet memories that you will share with your family and friends. Unit 5II.

She has a perfect command of the Chinese language, and is very popular with the legal and business circles here. Text A I've heard a saying that went something like, if you stay in a country for three weeks you can write a book, three months a postcard, and three years nothing! I am now faced with this problem. Having lived in China for about five years, I am totally used to daily life here. That shouldn't be something to complain about, right? Adapting to a different society and culture is something to be satisfied with, is it not? Usually it would be. However, it makes writing a column about my impressions of China a lot more difficult. In the West, student life is a combination of study and socializing with a heavy emphasis placed on the socializing part! I was genuinely impressed by the dedication and motivation of Chinese students. When I was a student I would rarely give up my spare time to any activity connected with study. Unless exams were approaching, my weekends were devoted to having fun or perhaps a part-time job. My Chinese students, on the other hand, seemed to spend their entire waking hours studying. I understand that competition in Chinese universities is extremely intense. Nonetheless, their energy and drive put me to shame. It may be true that rote learning is over-emphasized in Chinese education. Nonetheless, I found that this does not reflect the natural character of Chinese students. Given the appropriate classroom atmosphere and a chance to warm up, the students I met were naturally spontaneous and instinctively enjoyed drama. In some of the role-plays we acted out, certain students became so involved in their parts that they were bordering on an identity crisis! Thanks to the politeness and warmth of Chinese students, I conquered my fear of speaking in public and became more self-confident. Most importantly, I met dozens of fine decent people and made numerous excellent friends.我曾经听说过一个谚语，它好像是说如果你在一个国家呆上三礼拜，你能写一本书，如 果是三个月，能写一张明信片；而如果是三年的话，就什么也写不出来了! 我现在就碰到了 这个问题。我在中国已经生活了五年，所以我已经完全适应了这里的日常生活。这可不是什 么应该抱怨的事，对吧?融入到一个不同的社会和文化氛围当中是一件值得满足的事情，不 是吗?通常情况下是这么回事的。然而，当我负责一个描述我对中国感受的栏目时，这一情 况却大大增加了我的写作难度。 在西方社会，学生生活包含学习与社会交往两个部分，而侧重点则是社会交往!中国学 生的这种付出和干劲确实给我留下了深深的印象。 当我还是一个学生的时候， 我几乎不会为 了与学习相关的活动而牺牲我的业余时间。 除非是为了迎接考试， 否则我的周末全都用于玩 乐或者用于做兼职。我的中国学生却截然不同，他们似乎是只要不睡觉，就总是在学习。我 明白，在中国大学里竞争是极其激烈的。尽管这样，他们的精力和干劲还是使我觉得羞愧。 也许，中国的教育体制确实是过于注重死记硬背的学习方法。尽管如此，我却发现这并 没有反映出中国学生的天性。 我遇到的这些学生只要拥有一个适当的课堂氛围、 获得一个进 行热身练习的机会，就会很自然地进行互动，而且不由自主地享受着表演的乐趣。在我们进 行一些角色扮演的活动时， 有些学生就过于投入他们的角色， 以至于他们都快分不清演戏和现实的界限了! 由于中国学生的礼貌和热情，我克服了公开发言的恐惧感，变得自信起来。最为重要的 是，我遇到了许多优秀的人并结识了众多要好的朋友。Coordinating-Field InterpretingReporter：今天我们的客人是美国通用电气中国公司的总裁麦金泰先生。麦金泰先生 1988 年 6 月来到中国，对远东并不陌生。事实上这是他第二次来北京任职。在此之前他也在东京 和新加坡工作过。麦金泰先生，欢迎您到我们的录音室来。 Interpreter: Our guest today is Mr. Charles Mclntyre, President and Chief Representative of General Electric ( USA ) China Company. Mr. Mclntyre has been in China since June 1988, and is no stranger to the Far East. In fact, this is his second posting to Beijing and he has also worked in Tokyo and Singapore. Welcome to the studio, Mr. Mclntyre. Melntyre: Thank you. I am pleased to be here to share with your listeners some of my experience and our company's business activities in China. Interpreter：谢谢。能到这儿来，和您的听众谈谈我的一点经验和我们公司在华业务 活动情况，我感到很高兴。 Reporter：好的。您曾经自我介绍说您是麦金泰先生。您这个中国名字是怎么来 的? Interpreter: Good. You introduced yourself to me earlier as Mr. Mai Jintai. How did you get your Chinese name? Mclntyre: Very interesting question. My wife selected the name. She is originally &Shanghainese& and wanted to make sure I had a good Chinese name. Interpreter：问得很有意思。名字是我妻子给我挑的。她原籍上海，希望我一定得有 个好的中国名字。 Reporter：她的确给您起了个好名字。麦金泰先生，您在美国通用电气公司多少年了? Interpreter: And she's certainly made sure that you have. So how long have you been with GE, Mr. Mclntyre? Mclntyre: I have been with GE for over 20 years and had a number of positions in manufacturing, marketing, sales, strategy planning and new business development. Interpreter：20 多年了。我在生产、市场、销售、战略计划和新业务开发等部门中都 任过职。 Reporter：您在 GE 的工作时间很长，经验丰富。我们想听听你们公司在 90 年代的 主要战略。 Interpreter: Your experience in GE has been long and varied. We'd be delighted to hear what GE sees as its key strategies for the 1990s? Melntyre: GE is truly a global company in the top ten in the world in market valuation. GE has operations all over the world and is particularly complex in that it is not a one product company. We have 13 major businesses ranging from aircraft engines and turbine generators to plastics and appliances. As a goal, we want each of our businesses to be No. 1 orNo. 2 in the USA. Our long-term survival depends on this success as more and more competitors enter the USA market. Achieving and maintaining a No. 1 or No. 2 market position is also driven byanother factor----our continuing everyday effort to become more and more productive and efficient to meet our customer needs and to drive our cost down. We must make the best product in the most productive way. Interpreter：GE 确实是个全球性的公司。在市场评估中，它是世界前 10 名大公司之一。它 在全世界范围内进行活动。特别复杂的是，它不是单一产品公司。 我们要经营 13 种业务，从飞机发动机、涡轮发电机、塑料、一直到各种器械。作为一 个目标， 我们要求我们每一种业务在美国数一数二。 能否做到这一点将决定我们是否能长期 存在下去， 因为进入美国市场的竞争者越来越多了。 另外还有一个因素驱使我们去取得和保 持在市场上数一数二的地位，那就是我们每天都在不断设法提高生产能力和效率，以满 足客户的需要和降低成本。我们必须以最高的生产率生产出最优秀的产品。 Reporter：是的，我明白。不过我得说，这是个很大的挑战。你们怎样做到这一点昵? Interpreter: Yes, I understand. But I must say it is quite a bit of challenge. How are you going to achieve this? Melntyre: Two answers come to mind. One is that we must listen to our customers. Listen, listen, listen, and then act. Listening and understanding and then performing are not easy. A second answer is people. Listen to our people. This includes: opening communications. This means to continue to share with our employees the strategies and problems of our businesses to get their full participation in helping develop solutions. Offering challenges and freedoms to do their jobs without a lot of over management. Cutting layers of management. Layers of management add cost and hinder communications from top to bottom. For example, if you have a department with three managers reporting to a General Manager, we may cut this layer. Interpreter：回答这个问题，我想到两点：一个是我们必须倾听客户的意见。倾听、倾听、 倾听，然后行动。听取意见，理解意见，然后采取行动，这并不是一件容易的事。第二个是 人的因素。倾听自己职工的意见，其中包括： 广开言路，也就是说，把各公司的战略和所存在的问题告诉自己的职工，让他们充分参 与，帮助找出解决问题的办法，在他们的工作上提供各种挑战与自由，管理部门不过多地干 预，让他们完成本职工作；减少管理的层次。管理上的层次增加成本，有碍于上下情况的沟 通。比如说，有个部门，向一个总经理汇报的有 3 个经理，我们就可能减少这一层。 Reporter：听取客户的意见，听取职工的意见，可能这就是成功之道吧? Interpreter: Listen to the customers and listen to the employees. These could be the keys to success, am I right? Mclntyre: Absolutely. Interpreter：一点不错。 Reporter：GE 是什么时候重返中国的?你们过去曾经在中国设过机构，对吗? Interpreter: When did GE re-enter China? You had been in China before, hadn't you? McIntyre: Yes. In 1979, GE re-established its business contact with China through the opening of representative office in Beijing with additional expansion being planned. Interpreter：是的，我们 1979 年与中国重新建立起业务联系，在北京设了代表处，还准备扩 大到别的地方。 Reporter：外国到中国来投资的人感到最难解决的问题之一是怎样使外汇收支平衡。你们解 决这个问题有几个办法，如反向贸易、出口等。我对控股公司的想法特别感兴趣。Interpreter: One of the most difficult problems for foreign investors in China is balancing foreign exchange. GE deals with this issue in a number of ways, counter-trade, exports, etc. I am particularly interested in the holding company idea. Mclntyre: To begin with, we feel strongly that the problem of balancing foreign exchange for foreign investors is an issue that needs to be addressed prior to signing an investment contract. One way to explore this is to see if there is a market for exports. There may also be other products made in China that can be exported to earn foreign exchanges. Interpreter：首先，我强烈地感到，外国投资者外汇收支平衡的问题是在签订投资合同之前 就要正视的问题。探索解决这个问题的一个办法是，看看产品有没有出口的市场，也许还有 其他的在中国生产的产品可以拿来出口以换取外汇。 Reporter：麦金泰先生，谢谢您今天来参加我们的节目。我们祝您今后生意更兴隆。 Interpreter: Mr. Mclntyre, thank you for joining us today.

Interpreter：张女士，谢谢您对我的邀请。我希望这个节目有助于您的听众学习英语，也进 一步了解我们的经营思想。Interpreting and Assessment女士们，先生们，早上好! Good Morning, Ladies and Gentlemen, 今天我来谈谈如何在工作中利用好你的五种资源。每个雇员都有五种可以利用的权力资源。 估量自己潜在的权力资源并善用之。 Today, I'm going to talk about how to use the five sources of your power at work. Every employee has five sources of power to draw from. Assess your potential power sources and use them to your advantage. 1．个人权力：就是你的魅力、你实现你的信念的激情、你与他人沟通和给人以激励的能 力，以及你的领导才能。 1. Personal power is all about your charisma, your passion to achieve the strength of your convictions, your ability to communicate and inspire, and your leadership skills. 2．人际关系权力：来自你在工作中所建立、培养和保持的关系网和朋友圈；来自公司内 其他部门的同事一使你及时了解他们部门的情况来自公司主管――将特殊项目交由你负责， 来自公司内其他人等。 2. Relationship power derives from the network of contacts and friends that you make, develop,
from coworkers who keep you up to date with the goings-on in their part of the organization, to executives who seek you out
and everyone in between. 3．职位权力：直接与你在公司组织结构中的地位有关。公司业主、总裁和首席执行官有 很大的职位权力，而接待员、办事员或勤杂人员一般没有什么职位权力。 3. Position power is directly related to where you reside on your company's organizational chart. Owners, presidents, and CEOs have plenty of position power, while receptionists, clerks, and laborers typically have little or none. 4．知识权力：是你对你的具体工作、你所在部门、机构的某种特殊专长或知识。 4. Knowledge power is based on the special expertise and knowledge that you have of your lob,your departments, or your organization. 5．任务权力：存在于分配给你的工作任务中，有些工作其本质上较其他工作对公司的健 康发展更为重要。比如说，销售人员，其工作是通过销售产品和服务来为公司赚取利润，他 们通常有较高的任务权力。公司的健康发展更为重要。比如说，销售人员，其工作是通过销 售产品和服务来为公司赚取利润，他们通常有较高的任务权力。 5. Task power is inherent in the jobs you are assigned at work. Some work is by nature more important to the healthy development of the organization than others. For example, salespeople, whose job is to bring in money by selling products or services, usually have high task power. 你可以利用你拥有的任何一种权力资源来建立、充实你另一权力资源。 You can leverage any source of power you have to build your base of power in another source.Sentence Interpreting1．请您谈一谈中国加入西方八国集团的可能性。 2．您如何看待在中国西部地区进行长期投资的前景? 3．您认为应当建立一个什么样的世界新格局? 4．我要提的问题是，中美关系是否处在一个充满危险变数的十字路口? 5．您能阐明一下贵国政府的环保政策吗? 1.
